Predicted for 7. December 2026
·
Based on: Statistical Pattern
Antonelli leads the championship after 16 of approximately 22 races with 292 points — 81 points ahead of Lando Norris (211 pts). Polymarket prices the probability at 94% (September 25, 2026). Even if Norris wins all remaining ~6 races with fastest lap (max 26 pts each = 156 pts), Antonelli would need to score zero in every remaining race — a statistically extreme sequence. Mercedes has won three consecutive races (Monza, Madrid, trending Baku). Own calibration 90% (discount from market for mechanical failure risk across multiple remaining races).
Data basis for this prediction
- Polymarket: Antonelli 94 % für F1-WM 2026 (Stand 25.09.2026)
- F1 WM-Stand nach Runde 16: Antonelli 292 Pkt., Norris 211 Pkt. (+81 Vorsprung) (Formula1.com / GPFans)
- PlanetF1/GPFans 25.09.2026: Antonelli Favorit Baku — 3 Siege in Folge (Monza, Madrid, aktuelle Form)

Mercedes leads the constructors' standings with 630 points over Ferrari (504) by a 126-point margin (as of Nov 8, 2026; source: grandepremio.com / skysports.com). According to grandepremio.com, the Las Vegas GP (Nov 20–22) is the earliest possible race for a mathematical title decision: a lead of ≥86 points after the race would clinch the constructors' title early. With four remaining races (Brazil, Las Vegas, Qatar, Abu Dhabi) and this cushion, even a mediocre Las Vegas result suffices. Bookmaker odds imply >85% for Mercedes' 2026 constructors' title.

Bookmaker odds imply ~38% win probability for Max Verstappen (moneyline +160). He won the São Paulo GP today and holds the Las Vegas track record from 2025, where he dominated by ~20 seconds. Since Kimi Antonelli (Mercedes) already secured the 2026 World Championship in Mexico, the remaining battle is for 2nd in the standings between Verstappen, Russell, Hamilton and Leclerc (within ~9 points). Verstappen is highly motivated to collect wins. Competition: George Russell +400, Kimi Antonelli +700, Lewis Hamilton +2800. The night race on the Las Vegas Strip historically favors Red Bull and Verstappen's driving style.
